Pakistan LNG Limited, a state-owned company responsible for sourcing liquefied natural gas, has floated a tender to procure two LNG cargoes from the international market.
The company has sought bids from global suppliers for deliveries to Port Qasim later this month.
According to the tender notice issued Wednesday, the cargoes will be supplied on a Delivered Ex-Ship (DES) basis, with delivery windows set for May 12–14 and May 24–26, 2026.
Each shipment will carry approximately 140,000 cubic metres of LNG.
PLL operates under the Ministry of Energy (Petroleum Division) and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Government Holdings Private Limited, established under the Pakistan Companies Ordinance 1984.
The company is mandated to manage the full LNG supply chain, including procurement, storage, transportation, and distribution, as well as supplying gas to end users.
Last month, PLL had also issued a tender for three LNG cargoes covering April and May, amid supply disruptions and resulting load-shedding.
Following that tender, the company received four bids from international suppliers for spot LNG purchases.
Separately, SOCAR, Azerbaijan’s state energy firm, has recently expressed willingness to supply LNG to Pakistan under a 2025 framework agreement that enables faster procurement through SOCAR Trading.
